The K2 SuperSmooth 72 Skis with ERP 10 Bindings are designed to give beginner and intermediate skiers an easy, lightweight, and stable platform to link smooth turns from the first run of the day to the last. Catch-Free Rocker™ builds confidence by aiding in control for added ease and stability. The K2 SuperSmooth 72 Skis with ERP 10 Bindings will have you skiing super smoothly in no time.

Rocker Type

Catch-Free Rocker - Designed to aid developing skiers with confidence, control, and added ease. This elevated tip and tail assures effortless initiation at slow speeds, stability throughout the turn, and a predictable release from the turn.

Core

Composite Core - A soft and forgiving core that helps to reduce weight

Laminates

MOD Technology - A secondary core that essentially acts as a suspension system quieting the ride of the ski but does not affect the overall flex of the ski.

Sidewalls

Torsion Box - Torsion Box construction is the foundation for a wide range of skis designed by K2. Depending on the dimensions of the ski, and the amount of flex and torsion designed into it, one model of a Torsion Box ski can differ greatly from another. The versatility of the construction enables K2 to build everything from entry-level through expert skis with this method. Torsion Box skis share common traits of ease, forgiveness, responsiveness, and energy.

Cap Construction - Durable and lightweight “cap” skis are built by a sophisticated molding process that envelopes the core and internal materials with the top layer of the ski. Used throughout our ski line, cap constructions can be assembled with a variety of different cores. These variations, such as glass and/or metal materials, are the determining factors of the skis’ performance.

Included Bindings

Bindings Do Not Come Mounted to Skis - Always have a certified binding technician mount and adjust your bindings.

ERP 10 Bindings - This beginner to intermediate binding integrates with the ER Plate for more effective transfer of power from the boot to the ski for better control and confidence.

Specs

Terrain:All-Mountain

All-Mountain

All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.

Ability Level:Beginner-Intermediate

Beginner-Intermediate

Someone who is new to the sport or working on linking smoother turns falls into this ability level. Typical beginner ski/snowboard qualities include: softer materials, narrower widths, and capped constructions. The idea is to create a ride that is easy to turn and very forgiving in case you become off balance or fall in the back seat. The addition of rocker in the tip and tail gives a catch-free feeling and shorter contact length when the ski/snowboard is flat on the snow, making it easier to turn.

Rocker Type:Rocker/Camber

Rocker/Camber

Rocker/Camber skis pair a traditional cambered profile underfoot with an elongated, early rise tip borrowed from fully rockered skis. This profile places the front contact point further back from the tip, while the rear contact point remains close to the tail. The rockered tip allows for better flotation and less edge catch for increased float in deep snow, while the cambered rear stores and transmits energy similarly to a fully cambered ski.

Turning Radius:Short

Core/Laminates:Composite

Tail Type:Flat

Flat

This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.
